In Mold Labeling (IML) a transformation in packaging and branding.

In present day which is a very competitive market product presentation is key to winning over consumers and establishing brand identity. Also, at your disposal is In-Mold Labeling (IML) which is a very innovative solution this process puts labels into plastic packaging at the time of mold which is a first.

In contrast to the post production application of labels which is what we see in typical practice, with Intermolded Labeling we embed the label into the container which in turn results in a much more durable product, greater wear resistance, and a perfect finish. This top of the range labeling solution is used by players in the food packaging, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and consumer goods industries which in turn gives them high quality branding and shelf appeal.

How Does In-Mold Labeling Work?

The IML process which is to put a preprinted polypropylene label in a mold before we pour in the molten plastic material. As the plastic forms it locks in the label which becomes a part of the container’s surface. We get a permanent high-resolution label which also is resistant to peeling, scratching or fading over time.

Key Steps in IML:

1. Label Preparation: Pre printed labels made of polypropylene for mold resistant quality.
2. Mold Placement: The label is placed in exact position within the mold before injection molding starts.
3. Plastic Injection: Plastic in a melted state is poured into the mold which at the same time attaches to the label as it cools.
4. Finished Product: Once the container has cooled down the label is a permanent part of the product’s surface.

Advantages of In-Mold Labeling

1. Greater Aesthetic Value.

IML provides premium grade graphics which are very vivid in color, we also present to you labels that are smudge, moisture and scratch resistant which is great for products that are put in tough environments.

2. Increased Durability.

Since the label is included in the packaging material at the time of production it does not come off which in turn gives the material a very long life. That is why we see IML very often used in the health care, food, and chemical industries.

3. Cost-Efficient & Eco-Friendly.

IML decreases use of adhesives, secondary labeling and large amounts of packaging which in turn presents a more sustainable and economic solution. Also because IML labels are of the same material as the container they are fully recyclable which in turn contributes to environmental conservation.

4. Improved Productivity.

Since we have integrated labeling into the manufacturing process with IML what we see is a reduction in extra labeling steps which in turn reduces production time and also costs. Also we see that the process improves quality consistency and also reduces human error which is typical in manual labeling.

5. Personalization and Flexibility.

IML gives brands a platform to play around with various label designs, textures and finishes which in turn presents a vast array of creative options. From matte to glossy, via metallic to transparent labels IML puts together visually striking results that in turn meet your product’s branding requirements.
